The police officer who shot him was black. No riots, no care.

Is the purpose of this thread to highlight the absolute importance of following every command of a police officer, even if you feel you've done nothing wrong?

hoe lee crap that's funn ee.

I guess in the States not listening to the cop = threat = justifiable shooting.

That's exactly what it means (serious). Officers here learn to shoot first then ask questions later.

Who said it was justified?

[Lendogg]

Hmm, somehow I highly doubt there will be as much outrage.

Basically, at this point it is. The guy's hands are out the window, there was no justification to shoot him.

[IsthisreaLife]

I just watched the video, did he have a gun in the glove compartment?

Why did you link to your thread where you proved nothing?

[BrahPlease]

I just watched it, ignoring a officers commands doesnt justify shooting. You can only shoot if your life is in danger. A man with his hands up isnt a danger. It just means u got pissed and shot him cuz he didnt listen to you....

A guy having a gun in his car isnt a huge deal, the cops escalated the situation when everyone was calm, the man even said he had no problem and was calm. Lmao at the cops "hes reachin" to set it up as justified on video.

Edit. Was their even a gun?

It's a simple question. Another civilian gunned down by American police when he obviously was NOT a threat.

[Canadian2point0]

Who said it was justified?

The way it was reported, and many of the comments in OP's link. But most of all, the way the cop was reacting as soon he found out there was a gun in the glove compartment. They had control of the situation, but judging from the black cop words and body language .... he was acting like he was in extreme danger.

It was the passenger who got shot, not the driver (the one with his hands clearly out the window). From the video it appears as though the passenger forced his way out of the car, even with the cop physically holding the door shut. Tough to tell from the video, but the movement looks to be what I would consider aggressive.

Ah, I see. The video made it seem like the driver was shot.

In for later.

Look at the video again, the cop is pulling on the door, and i believe the passenger opened it and got out. And it's clear that his hands are up.

I saw on a comment that later in the video you hear the cops say "turn them all off, nobody should be on" or something, and then all the mic audio goes dead. Why would they turn their mics off? Thats very odd.

“Show me your hands, don’t you move.”

Unless one is already showing their hands, it would be impossible to do so without moving their hands.

Yea, it's his fault he was given contradictory orders. He deserved to die.

Contempt of cop can often result in an immediate death sentence. "I AM the law!"

Well the Tutt family will get to sue and win.

It's racist but it's funny

That would be correct. You have a gun pointed to your head and if you're not complying, pretty obvious you're up to no good. Notice how the driver didn't get shot. Why? Maybe has something to do with the fact that he complied with the officer's order.

Getting out of the car after being told not to get out has preceded many police killings.

[tk217]

No kidding. You guys need to train your cops better. There's a reason stuff like this has never happened in Canada.

Dude it is New Jersey - a total ****ing **** hole.

[Turbomunkey]

Cop had to make a tough call there. People will always compose themselves in a non threatening manner in order to close the gap, right before they pounce and you have a fist/knife/bullet coming at you
